Trump’s War on Iran Could Screw Over US Farmers

The Middle East supplies a huge amount of the world’s fertilizer. Conflict in the region has sent prices soaring ahead of the critical spring planting season.

WIRED

@glynmoody I'm seeing reports that the Iranian leadership all got hit in that initial attack because they'd gathered to sign a peace treaty that was on the table. The war started because Netanyahu saw Iran backing down and couldn't resist the opportunity to drag the USA in.

TLDR: Trump got played.

@cstross
I would call it a perfect Sith move, if it was in *fucking* fiction.

This is like telling “Never deal with 'murica" to people that already saw the US as “the great devil”.

That will leave literal scars.
